General Questions about The Dukes of Hazzard Series

Hey y'all... Is the character Clem Boswell in the Season 6 episode Enos's Last Chance, played by James Cavan who was Artie Bender in the Season 6 episode Dead and Alive?

Yes, James Cavan played both characters, although he was uncredited in 'Enos's Last Chance'. It was quite common for actors to return to Dukes as a different character (I counted over 60 occurrences), but this case was slightly unusual as the episodes were so close together.

Another oddity in the casting of 'Enos's Last Chance' is that while it was about Scanlon, a master of disguise who could change identity, they used a different actor to play his salesman alter ego rather than just changing his makeup/wig.

    I don't think Hoss is human. I think think he's artificial intelligence. No human could be that smart. 

  • No. They are both Cadillac Series 62s, but Grady's momma drove a 1959 model while Newtie drove a 1961.

  • I definitely would have loved to see more Beaudrys. Same way with Ernest T Bass. Should have seen more of him in Mayberry.

Cousin HossC... Yep the David Haney character. Credited in David Hofstede's book The Dukes of Hazzard The Unofficial Companion as David Haney (Scanlon as salesman).

I assume you mean Barney Benson - Barney Miller was a 1970s/80s sitcom starring Hal Linden.

Each episode that you named includes a late-70s brown Ford Econoline van, but there are differences. The one in 'Big Brothers, Duke' appears to be a lighter brown and has tan or gold stripes along the sides. Although '10 Million Dollar Sheriff' and 'Trouble at Cooter's' are consecutive episodes, I spotted difference there too. The van in '10 Million Dollar Sheriff' has a roof rack, bars on the rear windows, silver trim over the wheels and along the sides, and the interior of the rear is painted in a dark color. Note: When Rosco pulls it over and it crashes off-road, the van changes to one with round headlights when they are rectangular for the rest of the episode. It would be possible to remove the additions and repaint the interior to change the appearance for 'Trouble at Cooter's', but my guess is that they were all just similar vans.

Thanks HossC. :)

Again, I think they're similar but different. The one in 'The Ghost of General Lee' gets into a crash at the end, so was probably damaged. There are actually two trucks used in 'Arrest Jesse Duke'. The one the car strippers get into outside the parts store was originally white, and still has white paint visible inside the cab and patchy bits on the back and roof of the cab. During the chase it's a different truck - they acquire a bed of tires and all the white paint has gone. This is close to the 'The Ghost of General Lee' truck, but the rust/wear spots are in different places.

As they pass Boss' house leaving the square in
'The Ghost of General Lee' they pass a very similar truck. Maybe this was the other one from the episode. It reminded me of the extra General parked in the square in 'One Armed Bandits'.

I always thought this was sloppy work of the producers! In the world of Hazzard, there's supposed to only be one General Lee!

Hobie... True. But my interpretation of that, I'm thinking maybe that General Lee was placed there as a backup in case of a break down during the Hazzard Square chase scene with the tractor and mules. If the one the boys were driving around the square past the tractor and mules broke down, they could've stopped and swapped to that extra car to carry on.

In Season 4 The Law and Jesse Duke, since the building playing Boss Hogg's warehouse where he has the Jones trio Alabama and her brothers Simon and Floyd Jones hide stolen merchandise is the same building that was the J. D. Hogg Grits Mill in Season 4 Mrs. Daisy Hogg, in The Law and Jesse Duke, that building is on Dry Creek RD. So does that mean when it was the Grits Mill it was on Dry Creek RD. then too?

Hey y'all... In Season 7 Strange Visitor to Hazzard, what does Mickey Larson say when the alien Little Cousin shoots his hand with his red laser beams from his eyes? Just before Buck Simmons says "Man the little devil!" I've never been able to make out what it is Mickey says to the alien.

Is a mountain and a ridge the same thing? In The Dukes of Hazzard Season 2 Mason Dixon's Girls, we have Razorback Mountain. In PlayStation 1 Game Boy Color and PC The Dukes of Hazzard Racing For Home Game we have Razorback Ridge.

My guess would be that a mountain comes to a peak. The peak could have a sharp or rounded top. A ridge looks more like the top of a tent.....a bit like an upside down V. Or it could look like an upside down U if the top is rounded. I'm not sure what the minimum length would be to be classified as a ridge but the maximum length could be many many miles.
